Uzbekistan’s gas and gasoline production declines

Tashkent, Uzbekistan (UzDaily.com) — In March 2025, Uzbekistan experienced an increase in the production of gasoline, diesel fuel, gas, and electricity, according to data from the National Statistics Committee.

In the first quarter, oil production amounted to 160.8 thousand tons, which is 10.22% lower than in the same period in 2024. As a result, the production of automotive gasoline decreased by 15.61%, reaching 304 thousand tons (compared to 2023, the decline exceeded 21%).

Natural gas production also showed a decline of 2.76%, totaling 11.32 billion cubic meters (a decrease of 8.1% compared to 2023). However, gas production increased in March for the first time in the last 3.5 years. The production of gas condensate dropped by more than 9.4%, totaling 296.6 thousand tons.

Diesel fuel production, which had dropped by nearly 40% in January and February, saw a partial recovery in March, reaching 182 thousand tons, which is 14% lower compared to last year. This is likely due to the completion of planned repairs at the Uzbekistan GTL plant, which lasted 3.5 months.

At the same time, positive dynamics were observed in coal production. In the first three months of 2025, over 1.21 million tons of coal were produced, marking an increase of 25.2% compared to the same period last year.
